Zuhuo Bei Dou
北斗
A zuhuo roast Bei Dou from my sister's godmother's factory. This tea is from a location in the zhengyan area, but not a particular named garden. Her teas generally feature a suitable pairing of tea from a good location with an exquisite zuhuo roast and an unfortunately high price tag. The transition from medium roast to zuhuo is fairly easy to identify, the higher temperature creates a characteristic dried fruit fragrance on the dry leaves. I found this tea to be fairly versatile and can handle a range of brewing conditions.
